كتاب الزكاةBook: On the Explanation of Zakat
بَابُ الزَّكَاةِ فِي الدَّيْنِZakat on debts
Hadith 668
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُصَيْفَةَ ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ ، " عَنْ رَجُلٍ لَهُ مَالٌ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ مِثْلُهُ أَعَلَيْهِ زَكَاةٌ ؟ " فَقَالَ : " لَا "
It is narrated from Yazid bin Khusaifah that he asked Sulayman bin Yasar: A man has wealth but he has debt equal to it, is zakat obligatory on him? He replied: No.
